Hadith 8871

حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمُهَزِّمِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَة ، يقولَ : " كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَجٍّ أَوْ عُمْرَةٍ ، فَاسْتَقْبَلَنَا رِجْلٌ مِنْ جَرَادٍ ، فَجَعَلْنَا نَضْرِبُهُنَّ بِسِيَاطِنَا وَعِصِيِّنَا فَنَقْتُلُهُنَّ ، فَسُقِطَ فِي أَيْدِينَا ، فَقُلْنَا : مَا نَصْنَعُ وَنَحْنُ مُحْرِمُونَ ؟ ! فَسَأَلْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : لَا بَأْسَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) on the occasion of Hajj or Umrah when, on the way, we saw a swarm of locusts. We started hitting them with our whips and sticks, and they began to fall one by one in front of us. We thought, "We are in the state of Ihram, what should we do with them?" Then we asked the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said, "There is no harm (in hunting from the sea)."
